"The delayed Euro 2020 will finally get underway on Friday, a year behind schedule, with Covid still set to cast a shadow over the tournament. The continent-wide event, first envisaged by then-UEFA president Michel Platini when he announced the tournament would be held across Europe, will be played in front of limited crowds and with strict health restrictions in place. The action kicks off at Rome's Stadio Olimpico, where Italy takes on Turkey in front of 16,000 fans." - NDTV Reported.
